Capathia Jenkins' has a great voice but I don't think it's the right sound for Effie. She sounds remarkably like Sharon Brown who played the role on tour. A tad bit shrill.

Hello people - this list is a figment of someone's imagination. There is no official cast !

If this entire post is bogus, and the poster has never been heard from again, it might be a thread the MODERATOR might consider editing or deleting.

i smell a phony... if Fantasia Barrino was cast in any film - especially a musical like "Dreamgirls", American Idol would be making a very big deal about it... and they're not... so I just don't this info is accurate...

It is phony. Like I said weeks ago, it's all made up. Condon's quotes are untrue.
"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Yeah, this is a total fake. Why do people start things like this?
There's always room for pathos - and jazz hands.

When WILL they be casting then? When is production supposed to start?

It sounds like it.
Besides, Effie is NOT is the background because of her size, it's because of her voice not sounding "white enough". It's a mistake that so many folks make.

Yes, I have seen a "skinny" Effie, it didn't change anything. But that's not the reason in the show that's she's put back there. Yes, Jennifer Holliday was large, so people keep thinking that.
She's lost all that weight now, but could STILL do the part.
